Purpose and User
The Ingersoll/Rand 232TGSL is a 1/2-inch air impact wrench built for general-duty fastening and removal work. It suits technicians who need a pneumatic tool capable of 625 ft-lb breakaway torque and 500 ft-lb fastening torque for bolts up to 1/2 inch.
Air Supply Requirements
The tool consumes 23 cfm at 90 psi through a 1/4-inch NPT inlet and requires a minimum 3/8-inch hose. It operates between 90 and 100 psi maximum pressure, so the compressor and line must sustain that flow without excessive drop.
Capacity and Limits
Free speed reaches 10,000 RPM with 1,250 impacts per minute, delivering a power-to-weight ratio of 104.1 ft-lb/lb. The exhaust exits at the bottom and sound level measures 105 dB. Buyers needing higher torque, lower noise or cordless operation should consider other tool classes.

Questions about this item
How often will the 1/4 in NPT air inlet or 3/8 in hose need new seals?
Check the inlet O-ring and hose fittings whenever air leaks appear; with clean, dry air at 90 psi they typically last months before needing replacement.
What limits continuous running at 10,000 RPM and 1,250 impacts per minute?
The 23 cfm air demand at 90 psi is the first bottleneck — if the compressor cannot keep up, torque drops and the tool slows.
How loud and hot does it get during all-day use at 105 dB?
Expect 105 dB impact sound and noticeable heat at the motor housing; run in a ventilated area and wear hearing protection for extended sessions.
